With five outdoor porches and an expansive sundeck, you'll enjoy front-row views of sunrise over the ocean and unforgettable moonrises in the evening.

Location Highlights
Crescent Beach is known for its wide, uncrowded shoreline and laid-back atmosphere. Just steps from the home, guests can enjoy long beach walks, shelling, swimming, and fishing. Matanzas Inlet, a favorite for anglers and wildlife viewing, is a short walk away and especially popular during redfish season.

Despite the serene setting, Coastal Retreat is only a short drive from historic downtown St. Augustine, where you'll find restaurants, shops, and centuries-old landmarks. Limited public beach access in this area keeps the shoreline quiet and uncrowded—perfect for guests seeking a more relaxed coastal experience.

Coastal Retreat is ideal for families, fishing enthusiasts, and guests who appreciate space, views, and the peaceful side of St. Augustine's coastline. Whether you're here to explore the inlet, enjoy sunrise coffee on the porch, or unwind after a day on the sand, this home delivers a truly memorable beach getaway.

Bring an empty suitcase!!
8 / 10Excellent·Jun 2026
Inside the home was clean. This is an older home in need of some updates and repairs but nothing we couldn’t work with. We had some problems in the beginning but communication was great and we were able to work it out and get everything squared away. The location is great and my kids enjoyed the pool and the beach.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
This was the 2nd time staying here for a family reunion. The house has a lot of room for everyone. The house needs some TLC and family didnt think pool was warm enough. 85 degrees.I still would recommend staying here.
6 / 10Average·Mar 2026
The house itself was fine. A few things that would have made it better. The lawn crew came during the stay on a Saturday. This should be scheduled in between guests. There was zero hand soap. Only bars by the showers. One trash bag for an entire weekend dint work. Overall had to supply many things I don’t typically have to provide during stays. The use of the pool would be easier if the notes could be read. The ink has faded.
